Lets try this...

Atom heart mother vs Iron Maiden
Meddle vs Killers
Obscured by clouds vs The Number of the beast
Dark side of the moon vs Piece of mind
Wish you were here vs Powerslave
Animals vs Somewhere in time
The Wall vs Seventh son of a seventh son

Maiden wins. I honestly couldn't find a better, more logical way to decide because I absolutely love all of these albums. And I mean all of these. Well, I like Killers and Meddle is fine, but the rest I do love.

Atom heart mother vs Iron Maiden
Meddle vs Killers
Obscured by clouds vs The Number of the beast
Dark side of the moon vs Piece of mind
Wish you were here vs Powerslave
Animals vs Somewhere in time
The Wall vs Seventh son of a seventh son

Alright, I'll bite.

Atom heart mother vs Iron Maiden
Meddle vs Killers
Obscured by clouds vs The Number of the beast
Dark side of the moon vs Piece of mind
Wish you were here vs Powerslave
Animals vs Somewhere in time
The Wall vs Seventh son of a seventh son

That's actually 4-3 for Floyd, but still, Maiden wins for me.

honestly im not sure with the Obscured by clouds vs The Number of the beast thing.
I mean, Obscured By Clouds is kinda weak for a Floyd album, though its still great.
Maiden being ultra overrated imo, but Number Of The Beast vs Obscured By Clouds is pretty close

Atom heart mother vs Iron Maiden
Meddle vs Killers
Obscured by clouds vs The Number of the beast (I guess, haven't listened to OBC much)
Dark side of the moon vs Piece of mind
Wish you were here vs Powerslave
Animals vs Somewhere in time
The Wall vs Seventh son of a seventh son

That's actually 6-1 for Floyd.
FTFM

For me, the first three go to Maiden.  The last four go to Floyd.  Why then did I vote for Maiden... because the Maiden ones that I like better, I like A LOT MORE.  The latter four, other than WYWH, it's a much smaller margin of perference/victory for the Floyd albums.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Maiden was the first band I was really crazy about in my life, and while I love Floyd, you never forget your first love.
So true! Never really dived into the PF universe but if i would, the outcome may have very well been diffrent so it's a little bit unfair for me to vote to be honest.

But as with any first love it's sticks with you until you die so Maiden all the way!

That's what the metal head in me is screaming. But the prog fan knows that in a few weeks I'd be clamoring for PF.
